    I have a 2008 Tundra Crewmax with 121K miles on it. It will probably be the last truck I ever buy, but I love it, and try to take care of it. I recently moved to Pittsburgh from Maryland, and LOVE this sports-crazy city! The people here are wonderful. I know, there are bad people everywhere, but so far, I have not met any here.
    I love to shoot, and own a Kimber 1911 in 45 caliber along with several rifles. In PA, I am free to carry it almost anywhere, and do. I am an Army vet and proud of it. Come from a long-standing military family.20141226_142549.jpg 20141226_142549.jpg
    I will try to post a picture of me or the truck (the truck is better looking).

    TEXAS!
    welcome from south texas.

    thank you sir, for your service! :oldglory:

    spend some time perusing these forums and you will find more than enough information and opinions to keep that '08 running like a top well passed 200k.

    my plans are to get 250k at minimum out of mine.

    happy shooting! :infantry:

    Welcome and thank you for your service. I’m new here but I learned quickly that this is one of the best forums online. Not just for trucks but any topic. My wife is from NW Pennsylvania about 2 hours away from Pittsburgh. I have only been to Pittsburgh once with her for a Steelers game. You are correct. The fans were crazy.
